Welcome to Ruin

 is a quest in Act I of Tyranny.

Synopsis
You've arrived at the outskirts of Vendrien's Well, at the old remains of the Edgering Fort. Just as one of the Crescent Runners was getting you up to speed on the situation, the Vendrien Guard attacked. Help Kyros' forces fight back the rebel assault.

Walkthrough

 * The Vendrien Guard broke through the fort's defenses, and now make their way toward the valley entrance. Head them off and dispatch as many as you can. Help the Disfavored battle the Vendrien Guard.
 * You fought your way through the Vendrien Guard attempting to flee the valley. Defeat the remaining enemy forces that continue to press their attack in camp.
 * Head to the gorge to find Pelox Tyrel holding Commander Drastus at dagger point. At this point:
 * Rushing Tyrel will cause him to kill the Commander (unless you have Athletics 30 or more).
 * If you killed the Queen during the Conquest or negotiated a peaceful settlement, you can taunt him into attacking you or persuade him into giving up the knife. In both instances, he'll be slaughtered by the Disfavored.
 * You can chew the Disfavored out for violating the promise of safety if Tyrel gave up the knife ; you can then tell them that your honor is important to you.
 * Lastly, you'll get to decide the fate of Tarkis Demos.
 * The Disfavored will request that he be executed by crucifixion, to act as a warning to the rest. You can later shorten his suffering by delivering the coup de grace.
 * The Scarlet Chorus will instead ask for him to become their slave.
 * Head out the gate to complete the quest.
